Texas A&M is known for promoting both football and its brand to the point of absurdity, and so it was more than fitting that they won the competition to land Daylon Mack, a coveted recruit from the Class of 2015. Mack, you see, managed to come out of the recruiting process not only with a scholarship, but with his…»2/27/15 12:19pm 2/27/15 12:19pm

Here's how trademarks work: you apply for one, if nobody in the general public knows that you've applied for one and objects to your ownership rights over a word, phrase or symbol, and the trademark examiners don't find a competing mark, you get it. Later, you have to hassle people in order to keep it. Very rarely,… »7/02/14 12:51pm 7/02/14 12:51pm

Johnny Manziel will get much of the credit, and deservedly so since the Texas A&M defense allowed 38 points in the first half, but Johnny Football doesn't do what Johnny Football did unless his D tightened up in the second half. »1/01/14 3:10pm 1/01/14 3:10pm

Despite what looked like a fairly painful shoulder injury, Johnny Manziel did return to the game and was effective almost immediately. He came back in and lead a 12-play 75 yard scoring drive, capped off by a one-yard rushing touchdown. And then whatever they likely shot him up with started to wear off. »10/19/13 8:07pm 10/19/13 8:07pm

Manziel was hit on a tumbling scramble on second-and-goal and immediately grabbed his right shoulder after it was driven into the ground. He got to his feet, tried walking to the bench and crumpled to the ground. »10/19/13 6:57pm 10/19/13 6:57pm

Scandal no one cares about sadly putters on. Hey, here's a picture of Johnny Manziel signing something with a vaguely sketchy dude standing next to him. You could look at it... you could go read this cool history of malt liquor marketing. Whatever, you know? [ESPN] »9/13/13 5:46pm 9/13/13 5:46pm

Johnny Manziel returned to action this afternoon after his half-game suspension and quickly started making noise. After a 23-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter—which put A&M up 38-21—Manziel seems to celebrate by counting theoretical (spiritual?) cash. »8/31/13 3:51pm 8/31/13 3:51pm

Johnny Manziel was one of many college quarterbacks to attend the Manning Passing Academy over the weekend. But he's the only one who was reportedly kicked out of it for being hungover. »7/14/13 11:38am 7/14/13 11:38am

There was almost no Johnny Football. No Heisman Trophy. No two-loss season culminating in a Cotton Bowl win for the Aggies' successful SEC debut. After being suspended for the entire 2012 season, Johnny Manziel started making plans to transfer from Texas A&M. That's when the coach stepped in. »6/26/13 10:55am 6/26/13 10:55am

Thanks to the few tipsters who passed along this since-deleted tweet from Johnny Football early Sunday morning. Don't sweat it though, Johnny, whatever the bullshit was, it sounds like it was straight up bullshit. Still, don't be so quick to get out, you're the king of the world in college. »6/16/13 9:31am 6/16/13 9:31am

The screenshot on the right is from the Facebook account of Ennis, TX judge Lee Johnson, who apparently had a speeding ticket issed to Johnny Manziel come across his desk and apparently couldn't help himself. It's not easy deciding the best part between the solemn, beard-stroking "Gig Em indeed" and the addendum, "I… »1/19/13 7:05pm 1/19/13 7:05pm

If you didn't think Texas A&M fans love Johnny Manziel (a.k.a. "Johnny Football"), stop doubting. An Aggie fan only known as "lvroper1959" uploaded this unsettling ode to Manziel called "Johnny Football," a cover of "Johnny Angel," a song released by Shelley Fabares in 1962. »11/28/12 1:20pm 11/28/12 1:20pm
